I can help you in a better way if you can send me your opg xray.
last 4 teeth (wisdom teeth) comes at age after 22 years..
in few cases they don't erupt and remains impacted..in such cases you have to get it removed by surgery..
get the full mouth xray to know the pattern of eruption of wisdom teeth...
you can visit to a dentist for xray and proper diagnosis. ..

Dear patient
its absolutely fine to have 28 teeth. Although there is still some time that your wisdom teeth can come out. But nothing to worry whether they come or not. Now a days many people have only 28teeth.
To be sure whether they are inside or not you can go for opg i. E. Full mouth x-ray.
Even if they are inside and there is no problem you can let them sit inside.
